The system helps the horse activate and strengthen its core muscles, hip flexors, and hind quarters, allowing the horse to support its back and significantly improve its self-carriage. But the bands do so much more than that. I have worked with Equiband since 2012 and often see immediate improvements in relaxation, balance, stability, and posture right from the fitting of the bands. For several years now, Equiband has been a standard tool recommended for both prehab and rehab by therapists and veterinarians worldwide.

For correct use, both to achieve the desired effect and to avoid overstraining the horse, proper fitting AND method of use are crucial. It is not appropriate to guess how the bands should be tightened, and it is not suitable to use the bands in conjunction with side reins.

It is recommended to book an individual fitting how the bands should be tightened and used. However, if that’s not possible, you can download my app “Equibodybalance” available on both App Store and Google Play.

The app includes fitting, recommended training plans, and much more that can be useful for your horse’s sustainability. For horses undergoing rehab, it is important to seek help from someone who can create an individual plan for your horse, taking into account injuries and the overall rehab program.
